CAMERATA BERN - Requests

"In the old style" - numerous compositions in the first half of the 20th century went by this name. Grażyna Bacewicz's Concerto for String Orchestra from 1948 is certainly neoclassical and - as the title suggests - pays homage to the recently deceased composer Béla Bartók. Like Bacewicz, Henryk Górecki came from Poland. He wrote Three Pieces in the old style as late as 1963. Melodious, tonal music by a former neo-tonalist. It testifies to his newly awakened interest in the liturgical chants of the Middle Ages.

Concertos for one or two solo instruments by composers such as Antonio Vivaldi, J.S. Bach and Telemann through to a harpsichord concerto by the Bohemian composer Georg Anton Benda take the listener on a journey through Baroque Europe. Music that shows the incredible imagination with which the popular concerto form was used at the time. The solos for these requested pieces are performed exclusively by musicians from the ranks of CAMERATA BERN.
